[QUOTE=Ace_Rimmer;49979948]What was it like?
Was it just him or was the rest of his team sick too?
I've only ever faced the odd youtuber.[/QUOTE]
It was as far as I know his full actual team I got one kill the whole round in like 11 deaths and we got completely steam rolled
[QUOTE=chandlerj333;49979914]It was originally a flat "you give and take minicrits." No one used it. Then it was "Give and take minicrits, plus 25% speed boost (and boosted to 8 seconds)." Still, no one used it. Then it was "8 seconds, give minicrits, 25% speed boost, and take 25% damage more damage." Apparently people still didn't use it. Finally, we arrive where we are today, and people are realizing how good it actually is.[/QUOTE]
sounds like they tried to balance it around pubs, where there's a ton of damage and spam flying around at all times. and putting a 25% damage vulnerability on yourself as an already squishy scout is just inviting you to get instakilled by some random shot you didn't see
of course, in a more focused 6v6 game, there's less damage getting thrown around and the downside is more manageable, but i guess no one had the opportunity to notice what it was like in competitive until now since they probably banned it on sight

Jeez, I watched something on youtube about when his team played The Bugs and the other team offclassed and took the piss as did Clockwork. Apparently B4nny was not happy. Sounds insanely dedicated. I'm impressed you killed one of them to be fair.

it's 10% and it doesn't change any meaningful threshold at all.

imo stress test matchmaking is far more enjoyable than the rest of the time. There's so few people on when there aren't stress tests that you end up getting consistently matched into the team playing against a group of actual comp players, so it's a horribly unbalanced stomp. With the full stress test though, there's plenty of people playing so it's rare to run into the stacked high-level teams.
[QUOTE=Zeos;49974626]A Tf3 with the same characters set in a different era would be radical[/QUOTE]
TF3 set in the 1990s with totally radical gadgetry and scenery would be pretty dope. All the comp-based, state-of-the-art casette and CRT action.
(Have it either right before the Cold War ends or in an alternate timeline where the USSR doesn't fall for even more retrotech theme fun)

Sure it sucks when you do too.

Hope it isn't you though.[/QUOTE]
It is, "Useless Medic" was one of his recent steam names.
Even then I don't understand the point he's trying to make (Even if there is one). If you don't like it then don't fucking play it and ruin everyone else's fun. The whole reason this has been put in the game is to finally acknowledge that a lot of people like to play this game competitively, before the only support comp had from valve was just giving out season medals. Comp being added into TF2 officially doesn't nothing other than help TF2.

just because you're not good at it doesn't mean you should ruin their fun.

Maybe he'll be useful when Valve un-nerfs the Heavy.
Although MM is certainly not my cup of tea, I have high respect for people who are just looking for good matches that way. I'm honestly amazed not everybody is a shit eating meme machine and actually want their opponents to just play the game peacefully.
This is why I will never take part of "lets be 6x the same class xD" in MM because that's just wasting everyone's time

I played a MM game yesterday where we had four G.R.U. Heavies and two Quick-Fix Medics.
Let's just say it was a very short game.
[QUOTE=brenz;49982748]Fuck, I had no intention to insult him. Thought it was one of the other guys.[/QUOTE]
You should have. He was intentionally ruining the game for other people. Him being a facepuncher in no way makes him immune from criticism for being just as bad as a hacker in terms of destroying the fun of others.

As for you, you are an asshole.
I played around 5 rounds of MM in stress tests, it is fun if your team is organized.
But if your team has that Pyro who refuses to switch from Puff N Sting to Medic and the enemy team has Colonel 6s Plat Roamer Soldier paired with Sire HL Plat Demoman Main or people like Lord Exor are taunting around thinking they are special for ruining other's fun, it goes the only way you expect it to go.
Out of those 5 rounds, 3 of them worked atleast. 2 of the was so bad I seriously felt exhausted and sick after the rounds ended.

Maybe only people who [I]play[/I] TF2 should get access to comp matchmaking? :buddy:

But I can't.
If you mean you don't have a pass and want one, people give away loads of 'em in the general thread.

You're not allowed to make jabs like that, when you've been exposed by Exor (in a totally-not-petty, not weirdly personal at all way) as a fraud that doesn't even play TF2 that often anymore :smile:

Beating a dead horse here, but I feel like this should really be kept to the Emporium, only because it was announced on Reddit and there are a lot more scummy people there that would exploit this to make a profit.
It's a well-deserved update and it being on Demo/Medic/Engie is definitely a welcome change, but I just hate people abusing the fact that item makers post their updates here just because they want to make money off of their items.
